Description
10/31/24 - This is a super rare Colt Government Model 1911 that was part of a small contract order by the French Government in 1915-16, and is the first we have offered! Only 5,000 examples were ordered, originally for officers but ultimately they went to the Tank Crewmen and have a low survival rate, while the remaining examples are generally in somewhat rough condition. This example doesn't have major bluing loss, mostly high point wear, but does have a notable patina throughout and also shows oxidation. Barrel is marked with only a 'P' externally. Listing includes a decent shoulder holster. Pistol is in the proper serial range for French contract examples, and is accompanied by a Colt Archive letter confirming the shipment information.Specifications
